The NI Ettus USRP B310 is an entry-level software defined radio (SDR) designed for research, prototyping, and deployment of next-generation wireless technologies. Covering a frequency range of 350 MHz to 7.2 GHz, the B310 supports up to 100 MHz of instantaneous bandwidth per channel, two transmit channels, and two receive channels. Independent local oscillators provide flexible tuning, while PCIe and Thunderbolt™ 3 connectivity options support integration into embedded systems, GPU platforms, and laboratory environments.


The B310 supports AI-enabled RF applications through PCIe connectivity, enabling low-latency, high-throughput data streaming to GPU-equipped systems such as NVIDIA® Jetson™ platforms. Its multi-device synchronization feature supports up to four devices connected by a specialized cable, enabling 8×8 MIMO systems with phase alignment and timing coherence while reducing system complexity and the need for external clocking hardware.
